Book preview

Unpoetic is simple poetry.

The series evolved into poetry with a purpose.

Feel.

Love.

First

It’s not a courtesy. It’s homage

The balance to new knowledge

It’s all that we want, knowing how fleeting

The feeling of winning though no one’s competing

So much pressure from the freedom implied

Quality embodied as quantified.

Temptation and question but not the Bite

Easier to travel with lesser to fight

Experience, Encounter

Concert and Bouncer

Disrespectful we force 0 when we know it exists

Hence such a hero whose sole fault is this twist

Again, Anxiety, Anger,

A ‘lil alliteration is ill,

Away and still

Alliterations Abound

Always acting, asking a bit much

Away with the same for change or

Address you as Stranger

More Mr. Nice guy.

No more Mi Azucena

A kiss

Such a rare space of feeling

Not a hug, nor sex -

A kiss is an end, and what’s next?

Innocent enough to move past

enough to leave you stressed

A greeting and goodbye

You ain’t doin’ that to every person you greet.

At any age, you steal away for one. 

Crawling, walking, rolling it can take you off your feet

A kiss

What is more worth stealing?

Was it worth it?

Chasing, Searching

Found it?

Perfect

Next things Best Thing

Earth is

No means No, and No means Yes thing.

Testing. Testing.

Answers Questing

Yet we

Forget to make amends.

Sacred oaths until the end
